Former Rockies catcher Miguel Olivo, now in the Dodgers organization playing for Triple-A Albuquerque, reportedly bit part of the ear off teammate Alex Guerrero in a dugout fight during a game Tuesday against Salt Lake.

Salt Lake Tribune reporter Steve Luhm reported that the game was halted in the eighth inning because of the fight. Then, later in the day, Fox’s Jon Morosi cited agent Scott Boras who said part of Guerrero’s ear had been bitten off and would require surgery.

Boras said that police are now involved. Find the Twitter updates below.
